PREPARATION FOR GEORGIA BAR EXAM

Barbara Katz offers a three-week course on the Georgia essay and Multistate Performance Test (MPT) exams.  This course is designed to help students maximize their scores on the Georgia essays and MPT portion of the bar exam.  As part of the course curriculum, students will be assigned essays and MPTs, and will receive individualized written feedback on their graded papers.  Class time will emphasize the best strategy for approaching the test, time management, how to structure the written answers, how to outline the information provided in the MPT, and synthesize the library into a cohesive synthesis of the law.  Some time will be reserved to help individual students create a structure for their studies, manage their available time, and make the best use of the bar review materials at their disposal. 

The class will be held on three consecutive Saturday mornings, January 17, 24, and 31, 2009, beginning at 9:00 a.m.  We will meet as a group for approximately two hours each week, and then Ms. Katz will hold office hours to meet individually with students and answer specific questions they may have that weren't covered during the class.  Students are encouraged to bring study materials with them, so they can utilize the time until their scheduled individual appointment with Ms. Katz.

Course tuition is $750.00 and must be paid in advance, by personal check or paypal.  Class size is limited to eight students.  The registration deadline is January 9, 2009.  To register, please email us and, if there is availability, we will send you a registration form.

Ms. Katz also offers private tutoring for the essay and MPT portion of the bar.  However, the three-week course is a prerequisite for any and all private tutoring. 

From 1994 through 2006, Ms. Katz was the program coordinator and writing instructor in the Bar Admissions Court of Study, a Georgia bar review course administered by Georgia State University School of Law.  This course has been suspended indefinitely, although information about the course may still available at its web site.
